    I know there is a Vaio CR owner's thread but I feel that this topic should have a thread of its own.

    I recently saw that sony is fully supporting Vaio CR for windows 7 upgrade.
    http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/swu-list.pl?mdl=VGNCR590
    I got to get everything working except the function key support.
    Somehow the sony shared library and vaio launcher software files are not installing on win 7 ultimate 64bit although sony says it should. I'm in communication with sony CSR and hopefully will get this resolved soon.

    Other than function key I got everything else working and my system feels very fast.
    If anyone needs any help in drivers or SW issues please don't hesitate to ask.
    Please give your inputs too...

    Thanks,

    I got each and every thing working on my CR590 (including Fn keys).
    Thanks to Sony for providing all the necessary drivers.
